Biography John Henrici

Note from Salvatore Russo, March 2004.

My mother-in-law has a painting by Henrici of a young girl who appears to be selling newspapers. In her right hand she is holding up a newspaper, and in the other, a basket on her arm (left arm), with newspapers in it. The painting is signed by him in the lower left corner. Under his signature looks like NYC, but not sure. Could not find a date.

Pasted to the back of the frame is a short biography of the artist as follows:
